Started a gray elf wizard.
Right off the bat I found a staff of quicksilver in the small cave for a +20 to speed, then I found a ring shop and grabbed two rings of speed for +10 to speed. And now after looting the water cave I found Nature's Companion for another + 15 to speed. Finding that staff has really made the beginning of the game easy.
I just found a spell book of lighting ball, so I am heading to Darkforge to grab some levels. Although, with all this luck I am bound to do something stupid and get my speedy mage killed.
